Head gasket kit.

[Colonel]

G'day. Couple of head gasket replacement questions:
1. Best source and price for kit, with gaskets, bolts, seals etc?
2. I like West Yorkshire's method of leaving the manifolds on..any reason why I shouldn't?
3. Do the cams have to come off to access the head bolts?
(From the YouTube clips I've seen, it seems the answer is yes)
4. Anyone have a copy of or know where I can find the relevant instructions with torques etc?

Spareto in Estonia is the best. They supply Ajusa gaskets and English made head bolts amongst others parts.
Ajusa is brilliant as they give torque specs and procedures.

Spareto has other makes gaskets and parts options too like from Germany etc.
Ajusa is a O.e.m supplier to Nissan Spain.

If doing it yourself it's best to remove manifold to lighten mass.

Forget about asking Nissan or anyone else for details as it's just not going to happen.
